    I've applied under NOC 4121. I haven't seen many with 4121 in here. Those who have applied under this noc somehow don't seem very active in the forum.

    I hope all who are submitting their applications now are using the latest forms. I read elsewhere someone saying. It would be really crappy if they send the recently filed applications back because of not using the latest version (4-2010) of the application froms.
